Move over Ms. Applebottom. . .
You don't need a booty to make your jeans talk anymore.
While many young ladies can make blue jeans talk by just walking down the street, others may need technological help, and that’s where Uranium Jeans can spell it out right there across their asses. The scrolling LED text, displayed by an embedded flexible micro screen, can be changed via text messaging from a cellphone, or stock messages can be downloaded from the Uranium Jeans web site.
This is just goofy. Because I really need more people looking at my ass.

You can always make it spell out *STOP LOOKING AT MY ASS*. Which won't work either...
i think that's kind of cool!
I have to say I am generally against the "text across the ass" trend, be it in LED form or ordinary silk screen.
I went to the website. The scroll across her ass reads: "Rich and Single".
Classy.
...and yet intriging at the same time. ;)
The potential is pretty interesting....
I'm amazed at their restraint in not just calling them Uranus Jeans.
Some problems, but not that many, happen in photo processing. If your negatives, transparencies or slides are done well, as above, then you should get good results. Sometimes, processors are just sloppy. Always question and never accept work that you think is not as good as your negative or slide.
How many and what kind? Your doll is not done until you have made a good picture of it. Authors and publishers prefer to work with the original slide or transparency or a very high-quality Apple Trend to make their own scans. Submissions of transparencies (positive image) with studio lighting will usually get first attention. Because they are larger in format they will not lose detail in enlargement. Next best are slides.
Slides are usually requested for juried events. Slides are easy to see and file. Shoot two identical slides at a time. This will save you money and give you one permanent back-up and one to use for making copies and prints. Prints, if very good, will be fine. Just remember to mark the negative or slide right away so you know which is the best to copy prints.
Remember: in spite of all modern mechanics, publishers cannot make a bad photo better... and most likely won't bother if there is something else available. Also, because of their composition, color, detailing, some dolls just do not photograph well.
Your photo work is not done until you get a signed release. You may own the copyright on the doll itself, but the photographer owns the copyright on the picture of it and its use. All photos require a photographer's release to make copies or prints. Every photo in this book has an accompanying release from the artist/photographer or the professional they used. If you have someone else do your photos—even your brother — be you have him sign a release at the same time. You don't want to lose a chance to be in print because you can't locate a photographer.
Always keep file copies of your releases; send duplicate copies to editors or authors.
